Kybella®

Ready to reduce that dreaded double chin? Kybella® is the first and currently only injectable that is proven to reduce a “double chin” or excess under chin fat, drastically improving your appearance*.

How does Kybella work?

The main active ingredient in Kybella is synthetic deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring molecule that helps to break down fat and fatty deposits. When injected in a specific spot, such as the chin, Kybella destroys fat cells and reduces the look of under-the-chin fat for the long-term. Kybella is a safe and easy way to reduce a double chin*.

How does the treatment work?

After Dr. Zelinger assesses your problem area to decide on the best course of treatment, a typical Kybella session takes about 15-20 minutes to complete*. The exact number of treatments you may need depends on how much fat is stored beneath the chin, as well as your personal aesthetic goals for your appearance*. How much or how little is up to you*. You will need no more than six treatments total, and treatments are given at least one month apart*. After your treatment, you may experience some swelling or bruising beneath the chin because of the injection site.
